RESULTS AND IMPACT IN 2021

This section presents the cumulative results of our active portfolio in 2021, as well as animated illustrations of 2025 projections. Our active portfolio includes projects in different phases: inception, full implementation and in completion, which our co-financing has contributed to. Here, we also showcase results from projects we have co-financed and highlight individual project-level results. This is all to give a hands-on feeling of our approach in finding efficient solutions to tackle challenges within the nexus of climate and development, in countries most affected by climate change.

Our results in brief

The graphic below presents a summary of our cumulative results in 2021, following our Theory of Change structure. Our active portfolio consists of projects in different stages: inception, full implementation or in completion. All these projects inform this report, both as cumulative results and 2025 projections. The projections are composed of aggregate projected targets and project-level estimations, which have been captured to the extent possible. Projections are reviewed annually.

This data has been collected by applying the Results Management Framework to facilitate results-based management, learning and performance improvement, and to provide a base for results and evidence-based monitoring and reporting on NDF’s operational and organisational performance.

Detailed results with project-level examples and animated illustrations of 2025 projections are organised under three outcome areas.

OUTCOME 1

Climate- and disaster-resilience and adaptability of cities, human settlements and infrastructure strengthened

OUTCOME 2

Natural capital and water–energy–food security nexus enhanced

OUTCOME 3

Access to and production of affordable and sustainable clean energy increased
